Default Pyrodex AND Triple 777?

Went to the pro shop today in search of 30-grain Pyrodex Pellets and they only had 777............Can you mix 2 Pyrodex 50-grain Pellets and a 30-grain 777 Pellet? I'm sure it's not the best thing to do, but would it do any harm?

Just shoot loose, you will get better results in most cases any way. But if you can only find the 30 grn pellets in the one brand just switch to that brand. I prefere 777 over pyro anyway. In pellet form they have the same velocities.

Like said above though, I would not suggest mixing them. It probably says right on thier sight somewhere.

I don't necessarily want to mix them, I would get Pyrodex 30's if I could. However, all that was available to me in a pinch was 777 so I was just checking, but I guess I just can't make any 130-grain loads this weekend. I'd prefer to stay away from loose powder for this very moment.
